Hadith 1918
359. Amīr al-mu’minīn, peace be upon him, said: O’ slaves of desires, cut them short because he who leans on the world gets nothing out of it except the pain of hardships.
۳۵۹. وَقَالَ (عليه ‏السلام): يَا أَسْرَى الرَّغْبَةِ أَقْصِرُوا فَإِنَّ الْمُعَرِّجَ عَلَى الدُّنْيَا لَا يَرُوعُهُ مِنْهَا إِلَّا صَرِيفُ أَنْيَابِ الْحِدْثَانِ.

Hadith 1919
O’ people, take upon yourselves your own training and turn away from the dictates of your natural inclinations.
أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ تَوَلَّوْا مِنْ أَنْفُسِكُمْ تَأْدِيبَهَا وَ اعْدِلُوا بِهَا عَنْ ضَرَاوَةِ عَادَاتِهَا.
